   This was an amazing experience. We had a last minute adjustment to our party size (2 instead of 3) and the staff was so accommodating. They were all attentive and kind without being overbearing. The food and drinks were phenomenal, with a lovely view of the grounds. I would absolutely recommend this experience!

   Lovely setting but food was very disappointing! The potato and leek soup was more like flavoured water but the bread was very fresh and delicious. The beef brisket baguette was pleasant but better quality could easily be found elsewhere. Would not recommend or return for the food.

   Our group of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon tea. It was pure magic. We didn’t want to leave. It’s breathtaking from the moment you set your eyes on the castle & drive onto the grounds. Pure heaven 🏰 we plan on going back soon.
